How do I write an If(And( function using dates as my logical test?
I'm trying to write a formula which would help me identify all dates within a
month and give me a result that says "July" or "Aug" or whatever. This is the formula that I tried but didn't work: =IF(AND(6/30/2009A1,7/30/2009<=A1),"July") A B 1 6/30/2009 July 2 7/4/2009 July 3 7/15/2009 July |

XL thinks you are inputing division, not dates. Change to:
=IF(AND(DATEVALUE("6/30/2009")A1,DATEVALUE("7/30/2009")<=A1),"July") Note that the simpler formula would be to just use =MONTH(A1) and custom format the cell as mmmm -- Best Regards, Luke M *Remember to click "yes" if this post helped you!* "mclovin" wrote: I'm trying to write a formula which would help me identify all dates within a month and give me a result that says "July" or "Aug" or whatever.

Maybe just using:
=text(a1,"mmmm") would be enough to see the month. (I'm assuming that you really meant to include July 31st in July, too.) mclovin wrote: I'm trying to write a formula which would help me identify all dates within a month and give me a result that says "July" or "Aug" or whatever.

Can't tell from your formula why you're using those boundaries. If you want the month name based on any date: =TEXT(A1,"mmmm") -- Biff Microsoft Excel MVP "mclovin" wrote in message ...

=MONTH(A1)
will always return a number between 1 and 12. When you format that cell as "mmmm", you'll always see January. =A1 formatted to: mmmm would work fine.
